Rocky, a patrol narcotics dog with the 226th Military Working Dog Detachment, runs through a set of stairs during an obedience demonstration Jan. 6 at the 226th MWD Detachment, Fort Hood. The certification tests the dog teams’ proficiency in patrol and detection work by having them complete a series of tasks such as an odor recognition test, obedience, response to gun fire, and building and road searches.
